F/365, A Year of Photography by Joel Leivick
After the preview exhibition closes, we will begin preparing the front of the gallery for an exhibition of photographs by Santa Cruz photographer Joel Leivick, taken in Northern India, Morocco, Portugal, and at home, on a dining room table in Santa Cruz.
Joel Leivick is a photographer, educator, and longtime leader in the field of photography whose work has explored the beauty and complexity of landscapes, architecture, and human presence. He served for more than 30 years at Stanford University, where he was the Robert and Ruth Halperin Professor in Photography and lead the photography program. Joel's work is marked by a quiet lyricism, a strong sense of structure, and a deep attention to light, detail, and visual rhythm. We hope you will join us to celebrate this beautiful new exhibition!
